Homosexuality - Right or Wrong? [Mature Discussion]
Please be aware that this is a MATURE discussion thread and anything other will only result in trouble. Please give sensible views.
So do you think It's right or wrong to be a Homosexual? Me, I think It's fine. Homosexuality - Desire/Lust for somebody of the same gender |
Well first off let me say this:
It's not really a choice, it's something your born with and its perfectly fine to be. |
Like Akio123 said, it's something you're born with. And I don't see a problem with it.
|
If a man chooses to love another man, and the other one has the same feelings then I say it's nothing for others to concern, I'm okay with it, and if they love each other they should be allowed to be with each other, there is nothing right or wrong about it, it's perfectly natural for humans to experience attraction for other humans, this is like saying,
Straight people, right or wrong, there is no difference there, we are all humans and whom are others to try too control the feelings of others. Que sere sera. |
Whats Wrong With It? Some People Can't Help It |
I'm fine with homosexual people. I have some IRL friends that are, actually. :) At my school, homosexuality isn't as condemned as it is in other places. A lot of people are accepting of them here but there are still some that say it's wrong or evil. But oh well.
|
Its been proven that 4/5 people go through a homosexual period, so theres nothing wrong with it.
|
I think that alot of people will say it's fine on this thread because they know It's the answer everybody knows is right. Whever they themselves think It's right or not, well thats another story.
|
I have plenty of IRL freinds that are gay. I don't mind at all :P
|
A lot of my friends are gay, I mean honestly it's 2009. I thought most people were past the whole homophobia thing.

I believe a lot of people will say it's fine because they really think it's fine. As you can see, countless members are friends with gay people and are fine with that, myself included. |
I'm fine with homosexuality, but at some points it bothers me; espeically at schools. This guys are homosexual, but they walk and talk like a girl. Seriously? I can understand homosexuality - Everyone has those thoughts once in awhile.
To me it's just weird. Everyone knows your gay, everyones fine with it, but why do you want to walk and act like a girl. Thats when people start to get mad. Sorry, but thats just my opinion - Sorry if I was offensive to anyone in particular. |
Quote:
I think the poll options are worded pretty poorly and should have as little bias in them. The only option for "I'm not fine" uses the words 'gross' and 'dislike' when you can obviously disagree with homosexuality but still like a gay person. I think the options should be: 1.I'm OK with it, everybody is free in that regard. 2.I'm not OK with it, because of religious/moral reasons 3.I don't really care one way or the other. |
I don't think its wrong at all. I have friends who are either gay or lesbian and to be honest, I think they should have every right to marry.
I mean, whatever happened to the right of freedom and speech? It only contradicts that and keeps a man from marrying another man and a woman from marrying another woman. Freedom and Speech applies to them because its their freedom and if they want to marry some of the same sex, let them. That's like saying that a woman shouldn't do a man's job. Yet, you still see women working their ways into wrestling and football. Men are usually against it because they like having their on luxuries without a woman interfering, am I right boys? So, I say let them marry and be happy. It's not hurting anyone because it's not wrong. It's also like telling a person in a wheelchair that they can't bring their service dog into a restaurant. People have reasons for doing things and as for love, I will safely say... Love has no boundaries and as long as you are happy with your partner, your partner treats you with love and respect and doesn't do anything to hurt you or make you feel uncomfortable in any way, it's not wrong. |
As I grow older and more mature, the more I understand it. I used to be an extreme homophobe. But that's just silly now. I'm still deciding whether or not you choose or are born gay. Heck, I think sometimes I might be homosexual, but it doesn't matter as long as I love someone who cares enough to love me back.
|
I don't really care, if someone has feelings for the other, so be it. Though, it is the human nature to be with the opposite gender.
|
I think its not that big of a deal. After all, if you were in Homosexual would not think it the same way a person did if they like someone of the opposite gender? Love is love after all. As long as the other person is confortable with it, its fine.
|
There is nothing wrong with being homosexual. Now there's a certain act I object to, but I have no problem with the fact that there are people who are just attracted to the same sex.
|
It's hard to deem homosexuality right or wrong, seeing as the person in question doesn't have any choice in the matter. Personally, I don't have any problem with it. I know and have talked to many gay and lesbian people and they're perfectly normal and happy people. In this day and age, it's rather narrow minded to have a real problem with someone being homosexual seeing as it's becoming much more socially accepted. And yet bible bashers take to the streets and protest it every day....One of the many reasons why I hate religion >.<
|
I have 3 homosexual cousins, and many homosexual/bisexual friends. I see absolutely nothing wrong with it. I believe that people should have the right to love whoever they want. The only good Family Guy episode once said "Its legal for two straight people who hate each other to get married, but two gay people who truly love each other can't" and that's true in all but two states in the a USA (if I'm still up-to-date with my information) and I think that's pretty damn sad. I participate in every special day my school has devoted to homosexual awareness (we have many Days of Silence, not just on the national day) even though I'm straight. I'll always give my support to the cause.

I'm fine with homosexuality. I am actually very passionate about the whole gay marriage issue and am rather disappointed with what happened in California, so I'm not going to go into it too much farther since I'm not good at keeping my cool in regard to this subject. Even if being gay was a choice, I don't see what's wrong with it. It's just different, and I'm honestly a bit disappointed that difference still breeds so much intolerance. But eh, we're only human, I suppose.

Quote:
Anyway, homosexuality is perfectly fine in my book. I don't care if religion denounced it, mostly because I don't believe in religion. Someone can't control their sexual orientation; why would you want to judge it? That's like going over to a couple of Jews and throwing them in concentration camps because they're different. It's discrimination and it's idiotic. Homosexuals are people, are they not? Are we not all meant to believe in equality? |
No problem with it. Bu8t where i am making fun of it is cool so i just do so to seem cool. Otherwise i find em cool. As long as they dont hit on me i am fine. I mean i prefer girls and all.

Look at the end of the day is it our problem i have gay friends and they really are no differant than others some eithen less camp than me!!!
I really dont care if someone is gay or not at th eend of the who cares what he or she does with guys/gals in bed? |
I don't mind it, so it's "Right" I guess, I mean there's nothing bad about it.
|
I never really got the whole "hating gays thing." I mean everyone is a person, what's the point of hating people for no real reason.
|
Quote:
Anyway, I did actually vote "I feel uncomfortable around pople like that". If I think about it, I can't see any moral problem with it, but the fact is that quite a lot of people's initial reaction is "Eww!" Its not meant in an offensive way, its just a reflex and when you actually ask people to think about it, they'll almost always say that its fine. |
I'm fine with people being Gay, I mean why should we have anything against it. It's not affecting us, so just let it be.

Forewarning; this thread will be heavily watched.
If any flaming comes up, this thread will be locked in a second, so let's keep this civil. |
The Odd One Out
Erm, don't take it offensively, but I think homosexuals are unnatural. I mean, the human body is programmed to like the opposite sex, and I can't really understand how two people of the same sex could love each other romantically. Could it just be a misinterpretation of feelings or do they really love each other?
I don't feel comfortable around homosexuals, and frankly, I find it disgusting, but bisexuals, I'm not too offended by. Meh, I may get over it after a while. It's just that it's a relatively new idea, this homosexuality thing, and many religions, including mine, condemn it. So I'm still trying to get around the idea of it. How exactly can two people of the same sex be romantically attracted to one another? And the person who made this thread was also the one who made that God thread. You're quite the thinker, aren't you? |
Quote:
Clearly I'm fine with homosexuals being one. Love is love. |
My girlfriend was a lesbian. I turned her bisexual. I have no problems with people who love the same sex. If I make fun of a homosexual guy, it'll only be because he might be wearin something rediculous. On the women's side....well, I'll keep my thoughts to myself on that part. ^_^;
|
Quote:
And to stay on topic, I just automatically say 'Eww!' when someone says they're gay. Otherwise, I don't really care. As long as they don't act like a girl, I'm cool with gays, despite what I said above. I just want to get over with the homophobia thingy and then figure out how people are born gay. |
...I don't care.
It never bothered me, and I never had a problem with homosexuality, and I don't see why the hell people are still so concerned about "preserving marriage." It's retarded that we're still not in an age where this difference is accepted. Whether you're born that way, or it's something you developed later on in life, it's none of anyone else's effing business what goes on in your bedroom at night. Love knows no boundaries. |
Okay, every thread maker is on a gender/sexuality thread phase
I am a proud gay guy who will speak my mind on the subject in a quick snap. Its no more wrong than any other sin so I think the thread maker should make a new thread asking if every other sin is truly wrong. Can someone please quote the bible where it says its wrong? I believe it says a man shall not lay with another man or something? Thats fine, I dont have to lay down to do what I do. Okay honestly I think if everyone is going to judge us based on our sin then I dont think anyone should be accepted because we all sin. |
Quote:
as for me, I'm fine being around homosexuals, even some of my friends are gay and I don't care if they hit on me, I'm cool with it |
Quote:
I'm fine if people enjoy those of the same sex, since they don't really do anything to me. |
Quote:
Just because we are gay you do not act as if every gay person is out to touch you and its wonderful to know. We have standards too(mine higher than most). |
Oh, OK. I'm still going to feel uncomfortable around gay people, but I may or may not get over that. On forums, though, I don't really care. As long as they don't try to hit on me. I'm not that OK with it...
|
as a homosexual myself, I must say it is of course something I am not ashamed of, nor is it something I chose, it is the way I am and I know nothing about the reasons why am this way, not that I'm in such a hurry to figure it out since I'm comfortable this way, and @ Lord GaGa, it is true that it's more common to be heterosexual, but our body is prepared for both instances, did you know that the male G point is located in a place where....well, where it would be reached by being on the receiveing end of sexual intercourse, if you know what I mean.
As for your stance, I respect it, and like to see that you're trying to get over that firm disposition you have, I would advise being more sensitive in the future whenever someone tells you they are homosexual, many are quite sensitive about it, besides hurting their feelings, they could react in a negative, even violent way |
Quote:
I don't care on the internet either, since it's just internet. But hitting on is still hitting on, and I will snap if anyone ever tries to pull that. Otherwise, I'm cool if they're my friend. |

Okay, for those saying that they wouldnt like it if a gay guy hit on you thats not right to be stand-offish. I mean, if girls are not crazy about you what makes you think we would be? Also, when you see a gay person alone all the time could you please at least talk with them? Suicide rates are high in the gay community these days simply because they are not accepted by the rest of the world.

[agelimit]13+
Erm...Let's move on. So I understand that males are built to be gay, but what do you say to the people that say tat you can do the same thing without a man to satisfy you?[/agelimit] |
I'm am totally fine with it, you should love who you want to love and not have restrictions on it. I think that's totally lame, try telling straight people they can't marry because they're attracted to the opposite sex. It's no different from telling people they can't marry for loving the same sex. I don't think it's fair people can't marry who they want to because of it, and I'm upset about Proposition 8.
so yeah, nothing against it, like who you want to like. |
Homosexuality isn't even a choice, it's a state of mind, and actually, I had done a report on it at the beginning of school, and it said some sort of social defect or something, but that is most likely true, as it is given to a person from the moment they enter this world.
|
Quote:
|
...Why do people instantly assume that, just because someone's gay and of the same gender, that they'll hit on that person?
Dude, it's not like every chick you know hits on you, so what makes you assume that every gay guy you know will? Personally, I don't fear being hit on by a guy. I'm not uh...into that sort of thing and yeah, it's kinda weird, but it's not something I'm worried about every time I'm in the same room with a gay guy xD; |
As I said, both possibilities are viable, I didn't say men were supposed to be gay, I said nature provided us with the means to live and experience the act fully if we turned out to be^^
|
Well, being gay myself I obviously don't have any issues with it XD; Like other people have said, it isn't a choice. It's not like I woke up one day and just decided to be attracted to males, I've just been this way for as long as I can remember. So yeah, no problems with it.
|

Quote:
Like basically someone telling a homosexual that it's better with the other side? That's obviously not going to work, as gay people I know don't find the other side sexually arousing, and I definitely don't like other males. |

|
I'm not gonna lie and say I don't mind it, because God knows if a good friend of mine suddenly told me he was gay and serious about it, I'll never really look at him the same. Not that I'd throw away a friendship over it, but the question "is he checking me out/" will always remain in the back of my mind. If the gay couple doesn't affect my life at all, then sure, rock on with gay marriage and stuff, but when it get's too close then I will feel a little uncomfortable.
|
Quote:
It's also awkward when you have to do a project paired up with a gay guy. It's just... too hard to describe, but I don't like it. The only gay person that I absolutely hate is the one at my school, because... Let's just go with, before you know he's gay, and you try and be nice, he barks at you. So yeah... But anyone else, do what you want, I don't care, as long as you don't start feeling attracted to me. |
We do not come on anyone any more than a girl approaches a guy and vice versa, I for one, have no interest in anyone other than my couple, though I will admit that the extroverted type(stereotypical) will attempt to make such deliberate approaches, but so will "pimps" and the like, so it is not an excusive thing.

Replying to a few things that stood out to me for both positive and negative reasons. I'll assume that from these replies, you'll know my standings on this.

Finally, it's not for me to decide what's right or wrong in society. It isn't society's place to decide what's right or wrong in individuals. It's an individual's responsibility to determine what's right or wrong for themselves. Everyone but the individual has no say in what goes on in their life. |
I don't actually have any close friends that are gay, but I do have a few friends whom I suspect might actually be gay. It's just a suspicion on my part however, and of course I don't think any less of them for it.
I'm perfectly fine with it myself. I hope to be a part of the gay rights movement someday. Living in Utah, (there are a lot of Mormons who supported Prop 8) I would think I'll have plenty of opportunities. |
Homosexuality is perfectly fine. I don't mind being around gay people at all. It does not matter if you are gay, straight, bisexual, asexual or pomosexual. We are all human beings.
Homophobes simply disappoint me... They really do... While they usually spout a Biblical phrase against gays and lesbians, they fail to realize that the six or so verses out of 31,000 in the Bible which (hardly) imply a same-sex relationship don't even truly say "Homosexuality is a sin." I don't mean to say that all homophobes are religious, but when the numbers are boiled down, most homophobes are fundamental Christians. Homophobia is gay. :P |
if they love they love im fine with it just keep it out of the public please sometimes it just sick to see maby in some states and not in others will work fine but overall im fine with it as long as it dosnt involve me
|
Woo...Gay search ads. XD
I'm fine with anyone being homosexual. Having many friends who are homosexual, even my best friend in matter of fact, makes you realize that they are normal people as much as straight people are. Religion, in my opinion, cannot stop the way humans are formed and born. I am a devoted Catholic and I have done many things that guys are not supposed to do together. Even if I turn out straight in the future myself (When you're a teenager, you cannot really tell due to hormones) that won't change opinions about homosexuals. |

People, I believe anyone, just need to figure out this is not some choice. If it were that means we were all born bisexual and made a life decision on our sexuality.
|
What I've always wondered is... are people really born this way? For those that say God created them 'gay' or 'lesbian,' it says in the Bible that homosexuals won't inherit the kingdom of God. So... would God create you so you would never reach him eternally? [If that's what you believe?]
I think that as you grow and mature, homosexuality is something you choose. Sure, you can start to have these feelings as a kid or a teen... but that doesn't mean you have to pursue them. |

I'm a Christian, too. God created people in His image, and naturally... that does not include homosexuality. Otherwise, they would never be able to reach His kingdom. But as kids grow, as they're affected by day-to-day culture and influence, they begin to make their own decisions. God can start you out on the 'right' path, so to speak... but ultimately, it's a person decision they have to make for themselves. |

I say nothing is wrong with it...it is just how you feel about something, and like akio said earlier there is no choice, u're basically born with it.

That's kinda what I was saying. Maybe it wasn't, meh.
You decide where your interests lie; they aren't chosen for you, unless you give into peer pressure or something. No one tells you what sort of foods you like or dislike, and the same can be said for a person's interest in others. |

ErickaVolt, are you implying Homosexuality by force, or unwanted sex or something? "Abusing Gayness" can get pretty vague. :3 XD |
Also you can't be homosexuality. :x
You can be homosexual... but yeah. XD; |
homosexuality is nothin to do with someone unless they are a homosexual themselves...dont like it? tough.
as far as im concered bein with someone the same gender as u is the same as bein with someone opposite gender. but bisexuals? thats just plain greedy;) |
Being Homosexual means that your soul and whole being is corrupted. You insert something totally foreign in you that it's completely taken over you. Whatever the reasons for it, I considered them parasites. I totally loathed them.
Sorry for that, but that's my opinion. |
boo.
dude i see where your comin from but like i said as long as your not gay yourself it shouldnt matter to u. |

How can you get homosexuality inserted? |
I forgot homosexuals and bisexuals are different. But still, I think they're dirty, even they're inborn. Gays are just motes from my eye...

well you can't abuse being gay Volt, that's just silly really xD

Yeah, it's like making jokes with the wrong kind of person. As much as I like to, I couldn't.

I think ErickaVolt actually means a man dominating or abusing another man. :3
And uh, Gawain the snowdragon??? :S:S Is there a solid reason why you feel this way? |
Gawain the snowdragon for your sake i hope theres no gays readin this ;)
